No pressure...just bring back the 4000 with the following very minor "upgrades":
- longer front centre
- shorter seat stay
- shorter head tube
- slightly slacker head tube
- vertical drop outs (yes keep them the same, those horizontal things suck)
- 2 bottle braze ons (bottle launchers suck and should be banned...)
- up to date kestrel fork
- make sure whatever grouppo you pick, it comes with a compact crank option :-)
OK, done. Offer it in the original white, and also offer the candy apple red, and jet black that was available in the Kestrel 200 Circa 1991. That's all you need to do...this will sell like hotcakes. Slowman will write reviews saying that "Kestrel is back" and Mark Allen will come out of retirement and win Kona on it!!!
Edit: What the heck am I telling the "competition" to do...disregard everything I said :-) :-) :-)
